Visa Checkout and StubHub Team Up to Help Fans Experience Exclusive
Performances & Offers

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar. 13, 2017--
Today, Visa (NYSE:V) and StubHub
announced they are enhancing their partnership to offer a variety of
experiences that put fans at the center of the action. Starting today in
Austin – and everywhere – the two brands are unveiling a series of
events, promotions and offers designed to help fans everywhere snag the
hottest tickets in town.

In 2017, Visa and StubHub plan to introduce fans to benefits such as
seat upgrades when consumers use Visa Checkout to pay for tickets on
StubHub. In April 2017, fans will once again receive a significant
discount off their StubHub purchase when they pay using Visa Checkout,
repeating a popular offer the two brands first ran during the holiday
season last year.

Given the growing rate of mobile commerce sales1, more
merchants are making Visa Checkout available to their consumers to help
simplify the checkout experience and increase sales. As one of the first
merchants to take advantage of Visa
Checkout's integration with the Braintree platform, StubHub fans
will soon be able to use Visa Checkout in the StubHub
mobile app, making it easier than ever to grab a ticket.

“StubHub has been a great partner, and we are thrilled even more
consumers will be able to get their tickets on StubHub using Visa
Checkout online or in app,” said Sam Shrauger, senior vice president,
digital solutions, Visa. “As Visa Checkout approaches 20 million
consumer enrollments, we look forward to our continued partnership and
bringing consumers an easier way to pay on the StubHub mobile app.”

“We’re always looking for unique and new ways to give our fans the best
possible experience – whether that’s putting them in the center of the
action, or giving them an easier way to pay, like Visa Checkout,” said
Glenn Lehrman, global head of communications, StubHub. “This is just the
beginning of how our two brands will continue cutting-edge collaboration
and strive to make exclusive experiences more seamless.”

To celebrate the convergence of technology and music in Austin this
week, Visa
Checkout and StubHub
will host a private concert at the Everywhere Lounge as StubHub gears up
for their music showcase series in Austin. The StubHub “LIVE: Sound
Stage” will feature more than 28 performers over three days: Wednesday,
March 15 – Friday, March 17. A team of lifestyle influencers will be
taking part in the festivities and covering the StubHub showcase
throughout the week on their social media channels.
